While it is true that the patch fixes the build, that was not the only (or 
the main) reason I wanted to get rid of this package. It is long dead 
upstream (last commit was 3 years ago) and most styles crash when you try 
to use a modern QML application. I've seen complaints from the KDE devs due 
to the amount of crash reports they're getting caused by this. These are 
just a few from the last couple of months:
